@ronginald was a Twitter account operated by Matt Chapman from September 3, 2011, until January 22, 2013. (The account was closed and then reopened by someone who is not Matt or Mike Chapman.) The name is a reference to this strip of Ron Planet. In his Tweets, Matt insisted that Homestar Runner was not over (despite having been on hiatus since November 2009, with minor returns in April and December 2010); displayed sketches for In Search of the Yello Dello and rejected Halloween costumes and a teaser shot of the script for the then-unreleased Strong Bad Email 206; and mentioned how he then spent his time (he worked for the Nickelodeon program Yo Gabba Gabba, for which he and Mike had previously created an animated segment). The Twitter account @StrongBadActual was later created for Strong Bad.
